I said sometime back that the Donald didn't want to release his tax returns because he was embarrassed, not by the amount of money he made or how much tax he paid, but for the following reason.

Not that it's any of your business, 50% (of AGI) in 2015 (Built a handicap playground in local park), this year only about 20% (including substantial work on local Veteran's Memorial). Next question.

I have always believed that liberals are not totally bad, just misguided. I have good veteran supporters and veteran friends that are rabid dimocrats, but that doesn't make them all bad.

I commend you for the generosity you display of your resources and labor.
